Looks like someone over at XDA got pushed an update (a rather small one) that bumped their device up to IMM76Q.


It appears as though it is a test device since there are some letters above the speaker at the top, but this could be a sign of things to come.

Hopefully we get the JB update to fix the patent issue, and not just some Google Search quick fix and a delayed JB update. What do you all think?

At the supposed update size and with that build number I highly doubt it is anything other than what you just said--a Google Search quick fix.

Assuming it is just the search fix, which seems to be a downgrade, all the more reason to be glad I am running a ROM and won't get the update.

How does this affect us stock rooted users?

If you have a custom recovery you probably won't be able to install it. If you don't have one, meaning you have a stick recovery, you should be fine.

But depending on how it installs and what it actually is, you may be fine regardless.

This is probably the update to change the way voice search works so as to lift the injunction on the sale of new Nexuses.

If my phone is stock in every way will I have to option to decline it or will it just push it through?

It will force you to take it anyway... by annoying the doo doo out of you. Relentless reminders. You'll fold. I don't know anyone who has the will to withstand that for more than a week.

I don't know if OTA's are like they used to be, but they would sometimes download automatically, and just prompt you to install it... which you could delay for a while, but eventually you just give in, or root.

The latter is the path toward enlightenment ;)
